Classic 1978 Crew Cab Pick-up Truck- Model Tc3 on 2040-cars
Ocala, Florida, United States
Mileage: 172,468
Make: GMC
Model: Sierra 2500
This is a classic GMC truck 1978 owned by my late husband. Its weight is 2700, class is commercial, two axels, and her mileage is 172,468. The vehicle was totally restored in 1983 with a new engine installed in 1984. It has twin diesel tanks one on each side in rear, a locked tool box and a large hitch for towing. It's interior is all customized with blue crushed velour, a sleeping area with pillows and built in reading lights.
All the original equipment is intact including CB. It has a six track player, no gps, no cCD player or any upgrades or additions since the period of the early 80's.
The vehicle was put into storage in 1995 and has never been moved or driven or started since that time. The storage area she is housed in is in an aviation community in Ocala, Florida, a private hangar, museum that is heated and airconditioned, thus she is quite pristine. I believe my late husband may have drained all the fluids for protecting the truck as that was his habit with any vehicles that were in the museum. He may have also replaced those fluids with others used for the purpose of storing, knowing the truck was not going to be run but I am not sure.
It does not have any airconditioning that I know of as my husband was an Air Canada Captain and this vehicle was purchased in Canada. I still have the bill of sale. Sometime in the beginning of 2004, it became part of a corporation, which is now defunct.
I do remember he said "make sure no one starts up the truck until the fluids are in order. I will try to work that out on my end, but I have no experience with trucks or "heavy equipment," like my husband did. This truly is all the information that I know about this vehicle at this time.
I found all of the service records and original bills for the work on the truck after his passing. They amounted to over $31,000.00. HE LIKED PROJECTS.

GMC talking to dealers about possible Jeep Wrangler competitors
Wed, Jan 28 2015With respect to the team at GMC, it's pretty much fair to say the manufacturer prospers on a lineup of nothing more than gussied up Chevrolets. The brand's successes aside, GMC can be boiled down thusly – the Sierra is a Silverado, the Terrain an Equinox, the Canyon a Colorado and the Acadia is a Traverse, albeit with sometimes dressier duds. Strictly speaking, it's not that simple – Acadia and Terrain have siblings beyond the Bowtie – but the brand is remarkable for its lack of distinctive models. That could change, though, as The Wall Street Journal is claiming General Motors has broached the idea of a building a GMC-badged competitor to the Jeep Wrangler during a meeting with dealers. WSJ claims the new off-roader would "borrow cues and capability" from the defunct Hummer brand. That, of course, could mean many, many different things. While the original Hummer, the H1, was an exceptionally capable vehicle off-road, the H2 and H3 weren't nearly as single minded. It's unclear if a Hummer-inspired, off-road-ready GMC would lean more towards the former than the latter. According to WSJ's report, the GMC Jeep appears to be in the very, very early planning stages, with one unnamed source saying the idea was "being kicked around real hard." GM is still courting dealers for feedback, while it refused the Journal's request for comment. What are your thoughts? Is a Wrangler competitor long overdue for GM? Do you think GMC is the best brand to introduce such a model? Have your say in Comments.

Weekly Recap: Auto execs face life in prison for recall delays under proposed legislation
Sat, 09 Aug 2014
The stiff punishments are part of broader transportation legislation, but clearly McCaskill has automakers in her sights.
Missouri Senator Claire McCaskill threw down the gauntlet this week, proposing a bill that could send auto executives to prison for life if they were found to have delayed a recall. She also wants to eliminate the limit for fines for auto safety violations, which are currently capped at $35 million.
